利用铜川市地震小区划项目的大量典型土样动三轴试验结果,采用双曲线模型拟合得到了铜川新区黄土和古土壤在8个典型应变下的动剪切模量比和阻尼比值。根据不同沉积年代和不同土层深度2种方法对黄土、古土壤动剪切模量比和阻尼比随剪应变变化情况进行了统计和对比分析。研究发现:同一剪应变下,黄土、古土壤动剪切模量比随沉积年代和土层深度的增加而增加。二者对黄土动剪切模量比的影响较为显著。     

Evaluating foundation mass,damping and stiffness by the least‐squares method

This paper discusses how to use the three‐dimensional (3D) time‐domain finite‐element method incorporating the least‐squares method to calculate the equivalent foundation mass, damping and stiffness matrices. Numerical simulations indicate that the accuracy of these equivalent matrices is acceptable when the applied harmonic force of 1+sine is used. Moreover, the accuracy of the least‐squares method using the 1+sine force is not sensitive to the first time step for inclusion of data. Since the finite‐element method can model problems flexibly, the equivalent mass, damping and stiffness matrices of very complicated soil profiles and foundations can be established without difficulty using this least‐squares method.

淮安市典型土动力特性的试验研究

通过对淮安市典型的全新世沉积粉土和粘性土进行室内自振柱试验及粉土的动三轴液化试验，把粉土和粘性土的自振柱试验结果与Seed和Idriss建议的砂土及饱和粘土的剪切模量比G／Gmax-γ曲线和阻尼比λ-γ曲线的变化范围进行对比，结果表明：粉土的剪模量比要比饱和粘土的大，而比砂土的剪模量比要小，其阻尼比接近于砂土的阻尼比；粘性土的剪模量比要比一般饱和粘土的大，而与砂土的剪模量比相近，其阻尼比要比砂土的略低；粉土的抗液化强度与液化振次之间的关系可以用指数函数来表示，其振动孔隙水压力的发展规律可以用反正弦三角函数拟合；粘粒含量是影响淮安市全新世沉积粉土抗液化强度的主要影响因素。     

Aspherical correction for free vibration of elastically anisotropic solid by means of theXYZ algorithm

By applying the perturbation theory to theXYZ algorithm (a kind of variational method), the difference f in free vibration frequencies between sphere and ellipsoid was approximated as , where i and _i (i = x,y andz) (i=x, y andz) are aspherical coefficients and asphericities of the ellipsoid, respectively. We developed an analytic method to compute the aspherical coefficients719-4 by using theXYZ algorithm. A numerical example was given for an ellipsoidal olivine, and an attempt was made to estimate the asphericities of the specimen by a least-squares method, based on the relationship between frequency shift and asphericity.     

Isolation of plane shear wave using water saturated trench barrier

The article presents a theoretical investigation of the propagation of normally and obliquely incident plane shear waves past a rectangular trench filled up with water saturated soil sandwiched between anisotropic elastic media. The motivation for this work is due to the effectiveness of the isolation of waves by the in-filled rectangular trench. Unlike the most of the previous researchers, this model considers the soil–structure interaction effects and directly determines the influence of barrier in the form of in-filled trench on the mode of wave propagation. It is of interest to determine the reflection and transmission coefficients, and the energy partition distribution of shear waves in the in-filled rectangular trench showing the influence of barrier on the propagation of waves. An extensive parametric study through numerical computation is carried out to investigate the influence of the material properties of the in-filled trench and the amplitude ratios on shear waves. The in-filled trench barrier directly declines the intensity of waves significantly in such a way that the waves do not create any hazards to the nearby structures, if exists at all.     

Estimation of peak relative velocity and peak absolute acceleration of linear SDOF systems

In the seismic analysis and design of structures, the true velocity and absolute acceleration are usually approximated by their corresponding pseudo-values. This approach is simple and works well for structures with small damping (say, less than 15%). When the damping of a structure is enhanced for the purpose of response reduction, it may result in large analysis and design errors. Based on theory of random vibration and the established mechanism of seismic response spectra analysis, a method is developed (1) to predict the relative velocity spectra with any damping ratio level directly from the 5% standard pseudo-acceleration spectrum; and (2) to estimate the peak absolute acceleration. The accuracy of both is validated by using two selected ensembles of ground motion records.     

考虑轴向变形、双轴弯曲耦合效应的钢筋混凝土柱的弹塑性分析

在实际地震作用下，高层，特别是高宽比较大的高层结构中，由于倾覆力矩的作用、柱子、特别是外边柱所受轴力的变化将不可忽略。轴向变形与双轴弯曲的耦合作用，将是柱子塑性变形的显著特征。基于材料本构关系的“纤维模型”，能较精确地反映轴向变形，双轴弯曲三者之间的耦合作用。一组钢筋混凝土柱子双轴压弯的计算结果与试验结果的比较，证明了“纤维模型”的有效性和精确性。     

岩性、含油气性、有效覆盖压力对纵、横波速度的影响

在具有代表性的正旋回砂砾岩储层中，８种不同岩性的典型样品，在５种含油（气）水饱和状态下测试了纵、横波速度（Ｖｐ和Ｖｓ）与有效覆盖压力（△Ｐ）变化关系曲线。结果表明：（１）Ｖｐ和Ｖｓ与△Ｐ呈指数递增，Ｖｐ和Ｖｓ随△Ｐ变化在低压范围比高压范围更敏感，而Ｖｐ比Ｖｓ的灵敏度高。（２）同一状态下，同一非均质单层内的岩性变化范围控制了不同的Ｖｐ－△Ｐ，Ｖｓ－△Ｐ曲线族的宽度。岩性由细到粗，Ｖｐ－△Ｐ曲线由低向高变化，含钙、含砾粗砂岩的Ｖｐ－△Ｐ曲线处于曲线族的上界，砾状砂岩的Ｖｐ－△Ｐ曲线低于含砾粗砂岩的Ｖｐ－△Ｐ曲线。Ｖｓ－△Ｐ曲线也有上述规律。（３）同一样品，研究５种不同饱和度状态下的Ｖｐ－△Ｐ和Ｖｓ－△Ｐ曲线，发现无论压力条件如何，波速与饱和度均呈线性关系。（４）在同一的非均质单层内，Ｖｐ－△Ｐ，Ｖｓ－△Ｐ变化曲线随着含油、气、水饱和状态的不同具有明显的分带性。气饱和Ｖｐ－△Ｐ曲线族在形态及幅度变化上明显区别于油、水饱和状态，束缚水、残余油状态的Ｖｐ－△Ｐ曲线族，Ｖｓ－△Ｐ曲线也有上述规律。气饱和状态的Ｖｐ和Ｖｓ随△Ｐ变化的敏感度高于油、水饱和状态，气饱和状态的Ｖｐ随△Ｐ变化的敏感度高于Ｖｓ。     

Efficient analysis of pile-group effect on seismic stiffness and strength design of buildings

A new efficient method is developed for the analysis of pile-group effects on the seismic stiffness and strength design of buildings with pile foundations. An efficient continuum model consisting of a dynamic Winkler-type soil element and a pile is used to express the dynamic behavior of the structure-pile-soil system with only a small numerical error. The pile-group effect is taken into account through the influence coefficients among piles which are defined for interstory drifts and pile-head bending moments. It is shown that, while the pile-group effect reduces the interstory drift of buildings in general, it may increase the bending moment of piles at the head. This means that the treatment without the pile-group effect results in the conservative design for super-structures and requires a revised member design for piles.
